NASA says "Global Cooling!"

Here is the data from the two organizations that monitor the stratosphere (UAH and RSS). Both say it is cooling. One of those (UAH) is run by two climate deniers (Christy and Spencer). https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/upper-air/201607

The Sun changes but it has to change in a particular way to explain stratospheric cooling and the opposite way to explain tropospheric warming. Neat trick.

Auroras don't come "west" they go south (in the northern hemisphere), the stronger they are the further south they spread.

BOTH systems are paid for by the U.S. government. This is the biggest factor. The U.S. government is well known for manipulating data to suit it's own purposes.

Not really. The stratosphere and the troposphere are warmed by completely different methods. The stratosphere is primarily warmed by oxygen absorbing UV. The troposphere is warmed primarily by the surface absorption of many wavelengths (depending on the substance struck). Then conducted into the air and conducted and convected upwards, cooling it as it goes.

Wrong. The auroras are centered over the magnetic poles of the Earth, not the geographic poles. When the auroras appear in Seattle, our magnetic declination is such that they appear out of the north-north-east. Essentially, they come west to us, as well as south.
